Tiger337

I think this kind of crap happens in a lot of places, especially in the male environment of pro sports. It's good that the Tigers organization is addressing it.

Extra innng losses don't feel as bad because it's fake baseball. I did watch it this time...mostly because I wanted to see McGonigle and Dingler bat.

I have no special memory of my first live game. It was at Fenway, but I don't know when it was. What I do remember was becoming a Tigers fan. We lived in Massachusetts, so everyone in the neighborhood was a Red Sox fan. However, my father was a huge Cardinals fan, so I learned to hate the Red Sox in 1967. I was a Cardinals fan for a while, but my father told me I couldn't be a Cardinals fan because that was his team. The Tigers were good, so I chose them. As my family was spending a week in Cape Cod, I was listening to the games on the radio with my father. I think there was one TV game. In seven games between the Red Sox and Tigers, I remember the Tigers going 5-2 winning the middle 5 games. This would make it August 9 - August 18, 1968. I remember it as a 7-game series, but it was really back to back weekend series. I have no memory of the Cleveland series in between. Anyway, my team beat my father's team in the World Series and I never turned back.

I saw "Fluharty 5.40 ERA" and though "****, didn't he just pitch?"

At that time, I had high hopes for every player that was called up.

My MAGA and semi-MAGA friends are more proud of the fact that Trump "doesn't take a salary" than anything else about him. They think they are going to get me on that every time.

Tork might be batting .180 and can't field, but he's clutch. That's something you can't teach.

It has always been that way and always will.

I don't know either. If seems like when my fantasy baseball players comeback earlier than expected, they usually have a set back which keeps them out longer than originally expected!😀

Never say never about marginal prospects finding themselves for a period of time, but I agree Workman is very unlikely going to be involved in any decision to dump Torkelson.

What exactly have they achieved in Epic Fury that they didn't already claim to achieve last summer?

I have long thought that range is one of the most underated things in baseball. Range is to run prevention what getting on base is to run scoring.

No, a lot of them aren't, but the ones that are viewed as geniuses by fans tend to fall out of favor over time. There are very few that are universally admired throughout their whole career.

coaches, managers, GMs, all geniuses until they're not.
